    New rifle, and I fired a muzzle brake for the first time...

    I can see brakes being more popular than suppressors for shooters. Shooters want max recoil reduction and don’t care about the concussion because everyone is wearing good hearing protection. Hunting is different. Many, including guides and PHs, wear no hearing protection.

    New rifle, and I fired a muzzle brake for the first time...

    I too have a 300 Weatherby I purchased very affordably from my nephew. I loved the rifle but wanted to practice with it but found I really didn’t enjoy shooting more than a few rounds at a time. So, I had it cut back to 23” and had a 3 port ASR brake installed. I cover it with a hybrid 46m...

    From the shooting range

    Beautiful range, and for $3/day! That’s amazing. I pay $60 for one hour in a single indoor lane for my son and me.

    Can you clarify whether you mean you received similar work from Tim for $1000, or you actually spent $1000 more than the OP?

    Question about packing ammunition

    Carry on was a mistake. You are correct that they must be in checked baggage on international, and I believe checked as a separate item within SA. I agree with the Glock comment. I think I’m going with one or two Pelican cases.

    Question about packing ammunition

    But back to the the main question. Can a hard sided, lockable pistol case act as a suitable ammo case?

    Question about packing ammunition

    Each one would have to declared. I don’t see how they would be suspicious of something that was clearly declared beforehand.

    Question about packing ammunition

    I would put two boxes in one case, and two boxes in a second case. I would put the cases in separate carry on suitcases. My primary question is the suitability of using pistol cases to carry the ammo boxes.

    Question about packing ammunition

    I have a question about the lockable ammo cases. I was thinking about about splitting my ammo, which are in their original boxes, between two or three small cases with the idea the airlines might be less likely to lose all my ammo. Now my question. I have a few empty pistol cases, Glock etc...

    Vortex Free Custom Turret Redemption

    That was/is their partner in this venture, I believe. I’m a little concerned that Kenton can send me one in two weeks if I pay but with the free redemption process they’re sold out. I hope it’s just that they have a hard time keeping them in stock, but curious that after two years not one review...

    Vortex Free Custom Turret Redemption

    if I understand you, yes. You send them rifle, cartridge, specific velocity, scope height, zero yardage, and expected elevation/temperature data and they laser engraved custom turret in yardage/meters. Those who’ve purchased and tested generally say they’re spot on at least to a hundred yards...
